    you are better off powder coating or ceramic painting those. the heat will make the platidip peel off.

    I plasti dipped my calipers. Its only been a few weeks but its still holding up. I dont think it will peel but i bet it will be a pain in the ass when i decide to take it off. probably hard and brittle.

    I owe you an apology sir, I was reading this on my blackberry in a bar last night and I thought you were talking about the rims, not the calipers. So….my bad. But since we are on the subject, whats a good way to clean the calipers? I really dont want to take the rims off, is there caliper cleaner shit that wont strip the red?

    I think the green was cool, would look really cool with matching lime green badging and maybe a monster M on the hood in place of the Rams head….
